Answer: a. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the opposite side =12

Let the adjacent side = 16

Let the hypotenuse side =20

Using the pythagoras theorem

we are going to prove that hypotenus is 20

opp² + adj² ⁼ hyp²

12² + 16² ⁼ hyp²

144 + 256 = hyp²

400 = hyp²

√400 =hyp

20= hyp

Therefore hypotenuse= 20

Travis cuts 125 whole 2/5 inches wide strip if the percent of error was 10% the actual length of the strips he needs to cut was 114 inches

<h3>What is the percentage?</h3>

It is defined as the ratio of two numbers expressed in the fraction of 100 parts. It is the measure to compare two data, the % sign is used to express the percentage.

We have:

The length Travis needs to cut = 114 inches

Percent of error = 10%

Let's assume he cuts x inches wide strip

So from the percent of error formula:

$\rm \dfrac{x-114}{114} = \dfrac{10}{100}$

$\rm x = \dfrac{114}{10}+114$

$\rm x = \dfrac{1254}{10}\Rightarrow \dfrac {627}{5}$ or

$\rm x = 125\dfrac{2}{5} \ inches$

Thus, Travis cuts 125 whole 2/5 inches wide strip if the percent of error was 10% the actual length of the strips he needs to cut was 114 inches
